Ragweed

DESCRIPTION:

Ragweed is a set of scriptable debugging tools written in native ruby.

Where required the FFI and Win32API libraries are used to interface the
machine and OS native system calls.

There are no third party dependencies

Supported Platforms

Ragweed is supported and has been tested on the following platforms (32bit
intel only):

Windows XP, 7
Linux Ubuntu 9.04 -> 11.04
Mac OS X 10.5, 10.6

Ragweed works with Ruby 1.8.7, 1.9.1 and 1.9.2 and should work with any
Ruby that includes FFI support on 32bit WinXP, Win7, Linux 2.6 and OSX
10.6. We are actively investigating 64 bit support for each platform.
Unfortunately, this will require significant changes to Ragweed.

We have completed switching from Ruby/DL to FFI in 0.2.0. There should be
no incompatibilities as a result of this switch. Additionally, ragweed may
now work on rubies that include FFI support (jruby, ree, rbx), this has not
yet been tested.

FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

This suite is currently fairly piecemeal. Each OS has it's own set of
tools. The most complete set is for Win32.
